I dunno Code, whenever I heard talk of SD2K, they always said, the most expensive NON THEMED coaster ever built at $51,000,000. They would leave the NON THEMED part out if it was THE most expensive coaster ever built. I'm guessing the most expensive one ever built was probably a Disney coaster with the mountains they do. Possibly a Big Thunder Mountain Rail Road.

Yeah, now that I think of it, that was what was said. I wonder what the most expensive overall is.

I have a hunch that 'Thunder Dolphin' is going to end up being the most expensive Intamin, between engineering cost, earthquake proofing, and strange construction needs (Like going on top of a mall and through a ferris wheel)

If memory serves, didn't Arrow overshoot the agreed upon cost of X? I seemed to remember that it hit a price beyond what SF had agreed on, and Arrow ate the rest of the cost, as well as not getting their final payment in the first place, driving them into bankruptcy. If I remember this correctly, I wonder what the final cost of the ride was?

I had heard from some the the ppl at six flags great america (and no not the gp or a ride op but from the head guys) That with all the safety stuff, that deja vue cost around 70 mill. Not sure if it's true or not.
